Writing the Future

This one-day symposium (5/31/17) brings together authors, scholars, humanists, scientists, and industry leaders to discuss what it means to imagine the future. What are the ethical obligations of writing about the future, either creatively or scientifically? How might we, given the current socio-political context globally, imagine together futures that are socially equitable and environmentally sustainable?

A tentative schedule of the day’s events follows. Please be aware that this schedule is subject to change and will be updated regularly:
